It was strange. Everything happening before him felt incredibly bizarre to Cheng Shi.
Logically speaking, this experiment was aimed at Galiusha. Since she had already infiltrated it, why hadn't she sabotaged the experiment? Why had she activated it instead?

Amid the smoke and confusion, he caught only a glimpse of two blurry figures standing behind Galiusha. He then calmly snapped his fingers to prevent the trial from displaying a failure notification.
